Background:

Concerned partners (CPs) are vital in addressing alcohol misuse but often lack effective communication tools.
Developing targeted interventions can empower CPs to support their partners' drinking behavior change.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and evaluate a web-based intervention (WBI) to equip CPs with communication strategies for addressing a partner's alcohol misuse.
To assess the WBI's feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy on CP well-being and partner drinking behaviors.

Main Methods:

Phase 1: Dyadic ecological momentary assessment (EMA) to identify communication patterns.
Phase 2: Development of a WBI prototype and qualitative assessment of feasibility with CPs.
Phase 3: Pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing WBI to usual care, measuring CP well-being and partner drinking.

Main Results:

The study will establish communication patterns related to drinking behaviors.
Qualitative data will inform WBI refinement for feasibility and acceptability.
Pilot RCT will provide preliminary efficacy data on the WBI's impact.

Conclusions:

Equipping CPs with effective communication skills is a promising strategy to reduce harmful drinking in partners.
A remotely delivered WBI offers a scalable and accessible approach to support individuals affected by a partner's alcohol misuse.
